It's a hard choice for me.. I don't really like any of their final forms. If the third form wasn't so much more powerful I'd be tempted to just keep one unevolved. I'm guessing that's a bad idea though.. has anyone played through a game like that?
And I like greninja actually, except for it's tongue scarf- which is kind of strange. I guess I could imagine his tongue is in his mouth? haha. I guess delphox would come next, I'm not so sure about it though. And chesnaught is kind of unlikely, I usually like the grass starters too.

I like Froakie, but why is Goomy and option? I had to vote Goomy because I... don't know I just realized I apparently have a thing for little blob Pokemon... maybe it's a pity thing... or maybe I just want to see how they end up.

I still don't know which Kanto starter to go with. Do they have there dream world ability or anything cool like that? Can we get the stones for the ones we don't choose later some how?

Dang that Water Shuriken did nothing, I thought Delphox had bad Defense?

It's around 70-75. It's not exactly bad, but it isn't even good. A Waterfall from a mixed Greninja should leave a dent on it. And besides there is a quite big level difference: Lv. 46 Delphox vs. Lv. 37 Greninja.

I've been torn between Froakie and Fennekin from the start. From the base stages to the final stages I've loved them both, however I have to go with Fennekin again for my vote. Its been to long since I've used a fire starter.

I know Honestly if there was a not chespin option I'd do that, but I chose Froakie way way way back when they were first shown and that is who I am going with. I love herptiles... part of why gen 1 is always so hard to choose, they are all herptiles! (herptile is a generic term for all non-avian reptiles and amphibians)

Regarding the typings.
Chesnaught, with its Grass/Fighting typing, has a 4x weakness to Flying. Undesirable, but I do like its design.
Delphix, has a Fire/Psychic typing, which fits it perfectly with the wizardly/witchy appearance. The typing also benefits Delphox with a resistance to Bug.
Greninja is my favorite so far. Its typing doesn't give it any resistances to weaknesses, but it doesn't get any 4x weaknesses either. I think that this is the most bizzare of the three, mainly due to the tounge-scarf.

We all make mistakes, but the biggest one we can make is not learning from them.

I'm going to be honest. When I first saw Greninja being leaked, I disliked it and hoped it was fake. But honestly? It has grown on me so much and I'm definitely going to pick it. I didn't like Delphox at all at first but it has grown on me as well so I can appreciate it, thought not as much as Greninja. Chesnaught looks awful to me, really don't get the fuss about it.

Loved Chespin at the beginning, and now I really love Chespin! He's my favorite starter. I'm using him on X, just because I want to use Bulbasaur on Y (which will be my main) and I try not to have two of the same type. But Chespin is definitely my favorite of the three. Froakie is my choice for Y. And if Z comes out, or X2 and Y2 or whatever they do, I'm picking Fennekin.

So as the starters evolutions were revealed, I had an emotional roller coaster
First, I liked chespin the best, with fennekin second and froakie last
From the middle evolutions, I really hated quilladin, but it slowly grew on me... Order changed to - frogadier, and then braixen/quilladin
Then final evos came, and I didn't really like any... But I preferred delphox. So now it's- delphox, chesnaught and greninja

So, I like a certain stage of each of the 3 starter lines more at a certain point... But if I choose a starter now it will likely be fennekin

I am so excited to get this game, i am definitely choosing Fennekin! I fell in love with it and Braixen at first sight. Delphox was weird to me at first but she totally grew on me. I also like that she keeps her wand, that was a nice touch. I am definitely going to have to keep resetting for a female though. Has anyone else on here come back around on Delphox, I know it was getting a lot of hate.
